Jennifer Laporte, LCSW

Jennifer Laporte is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and life transitions. She works in Florida and speaks both English and Spanish. Her tone is respectful and compassionate, and she aims to support people taking steps toward change.

With 25 years as an LCSW Jennifer draws on practical, time-tested strategies. She focuses on improving coping skills, boosting self-esteem, and managing depression or bipolar symptoms in day-to-day life. She also addresses relationship concerns, communication problems, and caregiving stress for those caring for older relatives.

Jennifer uses structured approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and shift behavior. She also uses trauma-focused therapy when past events are getting in the way of current functioning. Sessions mix talk and concrete tools so clients can try new habits between meetings.

Her work often includes helping people through major life changes like divorce, career shifts, or the challenges that come with caregiving and aging. She pays attention to family of origin issues, blended family dynamics, and problems with attachment or abandonment that influence adult relationships.

People can expect a collaborative process where goals are set together, progress is checked, and plans are adjusted as needed. Jennifer adapts the pace and focus to each person’s situation so that therapy fits into real life and supports lasting change.

How her approaches guide online therapy

Jennifer uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT focuses on changing patterns that keep stress and anxiety going, and it works well for depression, worry, and everyday coping skills.

She also uses trauma-focused therapy to address the effects of past hurt and abuse. That approach helps people process painful memories and reduce their impact on current life and relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jennifer will work with each person to decide whether CBT, trauma-focused work, or a blend is best based on needs, goals, and preferences. Goals are set together and reviewed as therapy progresses.
